The story of the film is simple, but at the same time multi-layered. Guido (Marcello Mastrojáni) is a famous Italian film director who is trying to recover from the success of his previous film and is looking for inspiration for a new film. He has a complicated relationship with his wife (Anuka Emé), but in his imagination he is increasingly visited by the ideal of a woman (Claudia Cardinal). Producers insist on clarity about the director’s next film, but the work does not work and threatens with the master’s creative crisis. Guido invents different versions of how to hide from reality. He indulges in sentimental memories of a happy life in his childhood home and travels to a resort where he enjoys fragrant baths and is served by the most beautiful women of his life. In dreams and fantasies, he is still able to be free and fly.
